That is one unprofessional-looking web page -- using paragraphs starting with 'O' in super-narrow columns to represent a table rows? It's the most important thing in the post and it's a confused wrapped jumble.

[Disclaimer: I work on Windows Azure] This is just a blog post. My guess is that their blog authoring tool messed up formatting. There should be some prettier web pages out soon.

Though I wasn't involved with this one, I've been involved with past rollouts and it is always a hassle to time the blog post along with the announcement and something always slips by.

I will try and get the formatting fixed though.

So... it's a cloud, but the database has to fit in one machine's RAM. Wow, Microsoft. Wow.

Too bad. I was hoping they'd make a decent attempt at cloud hosting, so the Google App Engine sees some competition, and we get better pricing overall.
